This can decrease package size by optimizing PNG image size. Images are
just stored with better compression and/or filter options. The actual
image content is not altered.

Additionally this can automatically fix broken PNG images which caused
some trouble lately.

I am not sure it is wise to use such a feature on Arch. One could say it alters the package in a way that was not intended by upstream. And similar to other downstream patches we add: It would be better for every user of such software if those png files are optimized by the upstream project. Especially if they are broken.

One could implement a namcap rule that checks for broken pngs or those that can be optimized.
